Pre-Journey

I am sitting on my mother's bed in Coon Rapids, Minnesota contemplating how to start this blog out. I guess I should let you know why I started this blog.. I am getting ready to leave for Cairo, Egypt in exactly a month (..hence the name Cairo Adventure). I will be living there for a year which I am thrilled and extemely nervous about. I am confident that I will learn and grow in my new environment and hopefully be able to make a difference there as well.

I will be studying Arabic, 5 days a week, 3 hours a day. I am syched. I already know some Arabic, as I grew up in Beirut, Lebanon. But I am very determined to come out of the year conifdent in my ability to converse in Arabic. I know its going to be such a challenge! It is something worth working for in my mind. I am so exited to meet the Egyptian people, become friends , and love them. This Blog is just to remind everyone, who has supported my trip in some way or would like to, that I am still alive while I am in Cairo :) And to take you along on all my adventures! I will be buying my ticket today, and will be boarding the plane in a month! Thank you all for everything and I hope God continues to bless others through you!
